thing about the volume of .chimes
at the center.
Roy Andrews of Law Hall said
several of his constituents had
complained of the chimes “getting
on their nerves.” He proposed
that they be turned off all week
except Saturdays and Sundays. .
The council killed this motion
quickly and accepted the more mod
erate one, to tone the chimes
down.
Report of a poll of the civilian
dormitories showed students to be
in favor of asking the Aggieland
Orchestra to play for the Civilian
Ball. Also approved, by a large
majority, was a plan for selecting
a civilian sweetheart.
The poll is still incomplete on
whether students want the dance
in The Grove or Sbisa Hall or
whether they want a barbecue or a
banquet.
Following business the council-
men had their pictures made for
Aggieland ’57.

diplomatic source reported last
night.
The source, who has been close
to the negotiation, said Israel
may include some qualifying as
sumptions in making the announce
ment. The informant did not
specify what these would be.
He said Israel would announce
the plans to pull out of the Gulf
of Aqaba and Gaza in accordance
with the General Assembly reso
lutions of Feb. 2.
The disclosure came after Is
rael informed the Assembly that
it would make a statement this
afternoon on the plans.
The Feb. 2 resolutions were
sponsored by the United States
and six other nations.
They provide that:
1. Israel withdraw immediately
behind the 1949 armistice lines.
2. Both Israel and Egypt ob
serve terms of the armistice and
endorse recommendations of Sec
retary General Dag Hammarsk-
jold for stationing U. N. Emergen
cy Forces along the demarcation
line.
Taking the floor Thursday when
the 80-pation Assembly resumed
debate on the Middle East crisis
after several postponements, Israeli
Deputy Delegate Mordecai R.
Kidron made this short state
ment:
“In connection with the debate
on the present item, the Israel
delegation will be in a position to
make a statement on the Israeli
plan for withdrawal at a meeting
of the General Assembly tomor
row afternoon. I would be grate
ful if it can be arranged for Israel
to make a statement at that time.”
Kidron’s announcement was re
ported by sources close to the
delegation to mean Israel is pre
paring to pull her troops back
from the Gulf of Aqaba and the
.Gaza Strip.
